Budai Raises Big on the River
Level 1
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Four players went to the 8♠5♦Q♦ flop as action checked to Alexandru Budai under the gun who bet 1,500. Only Liviu Bogdan Olaru called on the button.
The turn came the K♥ and Budai bet 4,000. Olaru again called as the K♠ fell on the river, where Budai slowed down and checked.
Olaru then fired out 3,000 and Budai tanked for a moment before throwing in a raise to 20,000. Olaru leaned back in his seat and gave the decision some thought before calling.
Budai turned over K♣Q♥ for the nuts, kings full of queens, and Olaru surrendered the big pot.
